Most of my pans are cast iron ands stainless steel. My only concern is a few of the cast iron pans have stupid embossed logos on the bottoms that I suspect might interfere. But it’s not a deal breaker; new pans are certainly in the budget. I was in fact planning on trying out the Misen carbon non-stick.
No issue with embossed logos. Stainless steel is not guaranteed to work though - plain stainless steel is not magnetic (thus doesn’t work), but most manufacturers sandwich other metals between layers of stainless to make them induction compatible
Carbon steel and cast iron are absolutely perfect though
Stainless steel is absolutely magnetic. It’s 95%+ iron, like carbon steel. However they often tend to be much thinner, so the good ones have a thick base for heat retention and spreading.
